Sending data from android to arduino MIT APP2 HC06

I have a difficulty when I try to continuously run my stepper motor using application created in MIT APP2,this is the code on Arduino Uno:

#include <SoftwareSerial.h>

int Incoming_value = 8;//vrijednost primljena s aplikacije putem bluetooth modula
//String Outgoing_sensorValues = "start0/0/0/0end";
const int stepPin = 6;  //PUL -Pulse Motor 1
const int dirPin = 3; //DIR -Direction Motor 1
const int enPin = 5;  //ENA -Enable Motor 1
const int stepPin2 = 11;  //PUL -Pulse Motor 2
const int dirPin2 = 10; //DIR -Direction Motor 2
const int enPin2 = 9;  //ENA -Enable Motor 2

}

This is what i get in serial monitor:

Motor only moves one cycle,I want it to move continuously,as long as i hold the button in an application,this is the app block diagram:

Most of your code is within this conditional statement block and if you don't send a new number, the incoming value actions wont repeat.

if(hc06.available()>0)
  {

To repeat until something new is sent, change the code to read the incoming message, and then set up your conditional tree (switch...case might be cleaner) dependent on what you have read.

Separate the reading from taking action based on the last reading.

Try something like this

void loop()
{
  static uint8_t move = 0;
  
  if( hc06.available() > 0 )
  {
    Incoming_value = hc06.read();
    
    if ( Incoming_value == 8 || ( Incoming_value >= 1 && Incoming_value <= 4 ) )
    {
      move = Incoming_value;
      
      switch (move)
      {
        case 1 :
        {
          Serial.println("Forward");
          break;
        }
        
        case 8 :
        {
          Serial.println("Stop");
          break;
        }
        
        default :
        {
          Serial.println("What?");
          break;
        }
      }
    }
  }
  
  switch (move)
  {
    case 1 :
    {
      // code to move forward
      break;
    }
    
    case 8 :
    {
      // code to stop
      break;
    }
    
    default :
    {
      break;
    }
  }
}

Thank you a lot man,you are the best,I have one more little problem,I need to have two modes,the program starts in manual mode,where I can control the motors,this is diagram block for that in MIT APP

So in manual mode I should be able to move motors with buttons,and in auto mode the motors should move depending on LDR values,do i need to change the limit for incoming value from 1 to 6,or something else maybe too?

[guix]

You just need to add a variable and some conditions..

static bool automatic = false;

...

if ( Incoming_value == 5 )
{
  automatic = true;
}
else if ( Incoming_value == 6 )
{
  automatic = false;
}

...

if ( automatic )
{
  auto_mod();
}
else
{
  switch (move)
  {
    case 1 :
    {
      // code to move forward
      ...
}
